Fill my eyes...there's no disguise...

Why is it that whenever I purchase some retail packs (remind me again, why'd I put myself through this once more?) I always meet the same doom.

Doubles.

And I'm not talking one pair of doubles, I'm talking multiple pairs. It's almost as if the card companies think that I build one set for myself, and another to sell everytime I buy cards. The bastardos.

2009 Upper Deck First Edition

I bought two packs (total of 20 cards) for a grand total of $1.98 + tax at the local Target. Here are the spoils:






DAMN DAMN YOU YOU UPPER UPPER DECK DECK!!

first edition packs have a small number in the fine print on the back. This identifies the pack and what's inside. This set is designed for kids and this helps the parents "steer" them in the right direction to help them build their sets quicker, and more cost effectively in today's economy.
You obviously got two packs with the same identifier.
